  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Quite an impressive airbase !

A few remarks though, concerning your settings, you might want to change a few of them in your sim:
  • I'd recommend you to disable to dynamic vegetation (a.k.a. SpeedTrees). These trees are not looking so nice, and their density is extremely low. They will make your forests look bad.
  • It seems your shadows are completely disabled ? I would recommend you to enable all of the "cast" and "receive" checkboxes, excepted for the vegetation (only receive, no cast, because it's very expensive on FPS), particles and no shadow flagged content.

The shadows on ground will greatly enhance the rendering, especially for the various scenery elements such as buildings/hangars (finally your plane will be in the shadow when sitting under an open hangar :) ) or static planes :)

NC, great Cecil shots, have you tried the converted MAIW JAI A-7 in v5 yet? Might save on some framerates.

I haven't tried them yet, but I am sure they do not have all the squadrons that I need that were based at Cecil. If I recall correctly, I think all of theirs are the Lemoore based squadrons?

Thank you for your suggestions! I will take a look at my settings, and report back. Would have done so already, but had underwent :frown-new:outpatient surgery this morning. NC
